A.
Make sure that the jump start unit has two or more power indicator lights on (to ensure it
has sufficient charge to jump start the vehicle). If the jump start capacity is too low when
you connect the SMART START cable, the indicator light will flash red. Recharge the unit.
B.
Open the DUST COVER and insert the SMART START cable into the EC5 port on your jump start unit.
C.
Connect the red alligator clip on the SMART START cable to the red battery positive pole (+)
and the black alligator clip to the black negative battery pole (-).
D.
The jump start unit should now be ready to start the car. The green indicator light will light
up solidly. This indicates that the connection is correct, and you may now attempt to turn
your ignition key to start the engine. Do this within 1 minute. Otherwise the SMART START
cable will automatically disconnect and will need to be reset.
E.
If the SMART START cable detects a problem, the indicator light will turn RED. Please correct
the problem, and press the RESET button to start again. The problems may be due to:
(a) short circuit, (b) reverse polarity connection, (c) over current, (d) over temperature.
The SMART START cable will also not operate if the battery voltage is less than 3V.
F.
After jump starting the vehicle, immediately remove the SMART START cable from the jump starter and
then remove the cable from the car battery.
When the green indicator lights up solidly, the jump starter is active. Do not disconnect the
battery clamps from the battery to avoid risk of electric shock.
